diamidino compound 253/50

03/01/1994 - "Retrograde transport studies using Fast Blue dye demonstrated that the ductus deferens, seminal vesicle, prostate and rectum, but not the urinary bladder of the male guinea pig are at least in part innervated by the anterior major pelvic ganglion. "
02/01/2015 - "The results of retrograde tracing with fast blue dye indicated that most of these nerve endings originated from the petrosal ganglion. "
11/01/2012 - "Vagal terminals anterogradely labelled with DiI were common in the coeliac but sparse in the suprarenal ganglia, and confocal analysis revealed no putative synaptic connection with any Fast Blue-labelled cell in either ganglion. "
11/01/2012 - "On histological analysis 7-9 weeks later, 883 neurons were retrogradely labelled from the spleen with Fast Blue as follows: 89% in the suprarenal ganglia (65% left, 24% right); 11% in the left coeliac ganglion; but none in the right coeliac or either of the superior mesenteric ganglia. "
10/01/2012 - "The neurons associated with the left first sacral sympathetic trunk ganglion (STG S1), an autonomic ganglion particularly concerned in the innervation of the smooth and striated musculature associated with pelvic organs, were identified in the pig, using the non-trans-synaptic fluorescent retrograde neuronal tracer Fast Blue. "

06/01/2005 - "Allergic airway inflammation was found to induce the expression of SP/NKA (13.2+/-1.43% vs. 5.8+/-0.37%, P<0.01) in large-diameter (>20 microm) vagal sensory neurons retrograde labelled with Fast blue dye from the main stem bronchi. "
11/01/2003 - "Ileitis was induced in guinea pig ileum with trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TBNS) and dorsal root ganglion neurons innervating the site of inflammation were identified by Fast Blue or DiI fluorescence labelling. "
09/19/1997 - "In cats with an acute (32 h) unilateral knee joint inflammation the proportion of calcitonin gene-related peptide-(CGRP) and substance P-(SP) immunoreactive articular afferents, retrogradely labelled by Fast Blue (FB), were determined using immunohistochemistry. "
02/04/2011 - "To investigate the inhibition effects of DLA on secondary injury of SCI, focusing especially on suppression of inflammatory responses and the mechanism of this effect, the following studies were performed: Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) scores to assess motor functions till 10 days after SCI; Nissl and Fast Blue histological staining and immunohistochemistry of inhibitory-kappa B-alpha (IκB-α) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 subunit protein; levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity analysis as an indicator of polymorphonuclear infiltration; IL-6 production in plasma 10 days after SCI; Western blot analysis to determine cytoplasm levels of IκB-α and NF-κB p65 subunit proteins in the nuclear fractions 10 days after SCI. DLA significantly attenuated the motor function and tissue damage following SCI in rats, significant reduced polymorphonuclear cell infiltration and IL-6 production, as well as reduced cytoplasm IκB-α degradation and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 subunit protein after SCI. In conclusion, the results clearly demonstrate that DLA inhibit the inflammation responses induced by SCI via inhibiting effect of production of IL-6 and nuclear translocation of NF-κB."

06/01/2002 - "Neural circuitry of the adult rat central nervous system after spinal cord injury: a study using fast blue and the Bartha strain of pseudorabies virus."
10/01/2009 - "We employed Fast Blue (FB) axonal tracing to determine the origin of regenerating axons after thoracic spinal cord transection injury in rats. "
06/01/2002 - "The distribution of retrogradely and transneuronally labeled neurons in the adult rat brain and spinal cord after contusive mid-thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI) was studied using Fast Blue (FB) and the Bartha strain of pseudorabies virus (PRV), respectively. "

10/01/1993 - "Fast Blue dye was still detectable after repeated cell division in grafted C6 cells, enabling us to track single cells as well as tumor formation. "
09/19/1997 - "The azo-dye, Fast Blue (FB), initially employed for retrograde neuronal tracing is increasingly used in cell invasion and migration studies to detect living cells in monolayer and glioma tumor cell spheroid models. "

09/19/1997 - "Fast blue, a fluorescent tracer in glioma cell culture, affects cell proliferation and motility."
10/01/1993 - "Cultures of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells, ERD 1.1 cells, a nontransformed immortalized cell line of oligodendrocyte progenitors and C6 glioma cells were labeled with the fluorescent dye Fast Blue and transplanted into brains of 4 day postnatal Wistar rat pups. "
09/19/1997 - "The azo-dye, Fast Blue (FB), initially employed for retrograde neuronal tracing is increasingly used in cell invasion and migration studies to detect living cells in monolayer and glioma tumor cell spheroid models. "
